Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of emergency repair of power cable construction, and in particular relates to an inflatable cable terminal quick disassembly device and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] When the two ends of the power cable are connected to the cable or other electrical equipment, a connection device that can meet certain insulation and sealing requirements is required, which is called a cable terminal. According to different usage occasions, cable terminals can be divided into indoor terminals (referred to as indoor terminals), outdoor terminals (referred to as outdoor terminals) and equipment terminals (T-type terminals, elbow-type terminals).

[0003] The T-type connector has excellent electrical properties, and is tear-resistant, ozone-resistant, oxidation-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and has high mechanical strength. It is widely used in power distribution networks.

[0004] At present, manual disassembly is still used during the construction and repair of T-heads (including the removal of the connection between the T-head and the equipment and the connection between the T-head and the cable). However, due to the long-term operation of the cable terminal, the silicone grease inside it gradually solidifies and adheres to the equipment connector. In addition, the T-head generally adopts a negative pressure chamber structure. Under the action of external air pressure, it is quite difficult to pull out the T-head. It requires multiple people to use ropes, and even use sharp tools to pry it open and shake it to pull it out. In order to pull out the T-head, the T-head is even directly destroyed. On the one hand, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, inefficient, and prolongs the maintenance time. On the other hand, it will cause certain damage to the T-head and equipment connectors, increasing the equipment operation and maintenance costs.

[0005] Therefore, we propose an inflatable cable terminal quick disassembly device to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

During the rotation of the adjusting screw 44, the baffle plate 31, the base 1, and the conical air head 33 move toward the T-shaped head 10, and the conical air head 33 is inserted into the tail end of the T-shaped head 10; S4, connect the inflation tube 91 to the inflation connector 34 (such as Figure 4As shown in the figure), start the high-pressure air pump 92, so that the high-pressure air is injected into the T-shaped head 10 through the inflation tube 91, the cylindrical body 32 and the conical air head 33. Under the action of the high-pressure air, the solidified silicone grease is loosened, and at the same time, the negative pressure in the cavity of the T-shaped head 10 is partially offset, so as to achieve the purpose of separating the T-shaped head 10 from the equipment connector. Finally, after disassembly, turn off the high-pressure air pump 92; S5. Next, when the connection between the T-shaped head 10 and the cable needs to be removed, first remove the pipe clamp 11, and then insert one end of the double-section threaded rod 81 from the front end of the T-shaped head 10 and threadably connect it to the connecting nut 83; S6. Thread the plug 82 into the other end of the double-section threaded rod 81, insert the hexagonal wrench into the hexagonal groove 84, and use the hexagonal wrench to screw the plug 82 into the front end of the T-shaped head 10 to block the front end of the T-shaped head 10 to prevent the gas from flowing out through the front end of the T-shaped head 10 (such as Figure 5 shown); S7. Start the high-pressure air pump 92 to inject high-pressure air into the T-head 10 through the inflation tube 91, the cylindrical body 32 and the conical air head 33. Under the action of the high-pressure air, the solidified silicone grease is loosened, and at the same time, part of the negative pressure in the cavity of the T-head 10 is offset to achieve the purpose of separating the T-head 10 from the cable. Finally, after the cable is removed, turn off the high-pressure air pump 92.
